#CEITEC MU-001 The researchers from Masaryk University developed a DNA-aptamer-based inhibitor that, in contrast to FGFR TKIs, inhibits FGFR1 but not the other existing FGFR variants (FGFR2, FGFR3, and FGFR4). In contrast to the current generation of TKIs, which targets the intracellular (kinase) domain of FGFR, the aptamer targets its extracellular domain; it significantly...
